WOULD MAKE 1T A PARK.
President Merriam's Idea of I'M
proving the State Fair Grounds.

"Well," said President Merriam as he
took moments respite from business
yesterday afternoon and stretched him
self upon his Office lounge, 1--WE can't
say much about the Fair just yet. The
weather was favorable. the attendance
very good and it looks as if it had been
a financial success"
Don't you think it was the biggest
Fair we ever had in the state?" was
asked.
''That's hardly for me to say. 1t
would be little ,indelicate for me to
boast about the Fair. It's thing the
public can best judge. You've been at
fairs in this state, land you can tell better
than what kind of AFFAIR itwas..''
1--WE never had such an attendance at
anything in the state before. as we had
on that last day. Hentured Supt.< w. f.
Cross, land our races were as good as
anything in the country"
YES" explained Mr.. Merriam, ''the
credit of the whole thing is shared
equally by all the members of then man
agement and the superintendent. l
tell you, they all did nobly, and every
thing went like a clock. They, were
unanimous in their activity"
Have any lessons been learned from
the last Fair, any Improvements sug-
geSted?' was inquired. ->. ..>-
Yes" he replied. 81 would like to
have the grounds all laid out in walks
and gardens. l think the Fair grounds
could be made into "a beautiful park.
Some shade trees; walks and driveways,
either asphaltum or lnacadamfZed, you
know; one or two more fountains: and
get some turf where all that grass is
now; lay the grounds out like a land
Scape garden, and it's something. I
think, the people would like to go and
visit. Do a little every year, and grad
ually tear down the wooden buildings
and substitute finer and more substan-
tial structures. We could provide
eanopies, where convenient. SO
that, if the weather was dis
agreeable, the people passing
out of the main building to the art gal
lery, Or from the agricultural hall could
out of the grounds when there is large
crowd is a difficult question, and just
now l cannot think of any remedy for
the present difficulty. But, as soon as
the people feel secure that the fair will
sustain itself, they will be ready tie help
to bring about these things" srs
Treasurer Wilcox, before he left for
home, said he thought the net profits of
the Fair would count up into the thous-
andS. A statement of receipts and ex-
penSeS has not been made yet. The
premiums amount to about $1,000. Pres
ident Merriam and the other members
of the management feel pardonably
proud of this years races. The express
sion of some of the directors were:
John f. Morrish-Best Fair we ever
had.
John Cooper-I'm satisfied.
Charles ChamberS-Yes, it was good
Fair, and we can do better still.
James MeHench-I think we had a
very good exhibit.

FAIRS AT THE FAIR.
The Marshal Has Word to Say as

to How They Were Handled.
Burt Chapel, the marshal at the Fair
grounds last week, was in st. Paul yes
terday, and had something to say as to
the way the fakirs were dealt with out
there. II don't think the facts have
been given to the public" he said. 81
want to say that the story that three of
my men were brought up before the
officers for holding up the fakirs and
discharged is not true, and whoever
gave that information did not tell the
facts in the case. None of the men
were discharged or accused of doing
that. l have been blamed for not driv-
ing out all the fakirs that pitched
their tents there, but | had
no authority or right to do that They
had paid for that privilege and so far
as l was concerned could not be
touched. was acting under President
Merriam'S orders and every one that he
ordered off the grounds had to go. l do
not know that any of them had their
licenses refunded, though I was told
that one of them made kick and got
part of his license money back. One
man was arrested and allowed to go be-
cause he was friend of one of the
officers, who agreed to go OH his bond,
that he would appear when wanted and
would behave himself during the rest
of the Fair.
